Mr. & Mrs. Himes, in later years, built a house across the street from Glenn's parents in Guerne.???? They live there to this day.

Ken Badertscher graduated with Glenn in 1957 and he, too, lives in Arizona (Tucson).??? I never realized that his sister, Kay, lived in Arizona until we got Addie's e-mail.????Ken attended?his 50th class?reunion last year.?

I can remember "watching"?girls doing cartwheels in the?school's basement, but I never participated.?? I was so un-coordinated, I would have probably busted my head wide open? (I know this to be true).
?
I don't have any memories of the cafeteria when we were in grade school, but now that some of you have written about it, I have vague memories that are arising in my brain.???I think I carried my lunch to school in my little trusting lunch pail.??? That's probably all my parents could afford.??

You correct.? Third grade was taught by Hazel Nussbaum but got married during the year to become Mrs. Himes.? In April, I changed from the one one room school house, Sonneberg, just across from Salem Mennonite Church.? My dad built a new house on the Kidron Road and I rode Mr. Showalter's bus to Dalton for the remainder of third grade and all of 4th grade.? By then, Kidron Elementary was built and I went there for grades 5-8.? Yes, I remember doing "gymnastics" in the girls bathroom during the noon hour.? That's the first time I knew I could do a pretty good cart wheel when Nancy or Karen thought I ought to try out for cheerleading!? That was an afirmation that a country girl could be a part of the "Dalton" girls.? Thanks.
